Reindeer in Finland help Santa Claus to deliver presents to children all over the world. However, the animals are in danger. More and more reindeer are being killed by wolves. A group of reindeer owners said wolves killed 1,950 reindeer this year. That is a 70 per cent increase from last year. A reindeer owner is worried about his animals. He said the increase in the number of wolves has upset the natural balance between reindeer and wolves.

The reindeer owner joked about his animals, even though he is worried. He said: "These are Santa's reindeer. We are really lucky because Santa needs them for only one day, so we can fly them for 364 days." Many people believe the Ukraine War is why there are more wolves. Many hunters in Russia have gone to fight in Ukraine. More wolves are moving from Russia to Finland. This means there are fewer wolf hunters.
